The Vault by Roslund Hellstrom

In a hospital basement in Stockholm, two bullet-riddled bodies lie sprawled on the floor ? the victims of a terrifying hostage siege. Behind the tragedy lie dark secrets ? of murder, corruption and torture...When a severely wounded woman is brought to a hospital in Stockholm, doctors are horrified to learn that her injuries are the result of a brutal whipping. She is Lydia, a victim of people-trafficking, a young girl from Lithuania sold by her boyfriend and now trapped in a Stockholm brothel, forced to repay her 'debt'. In the same hospital, police officers Sundkvist and Grens are chasing a lead that may just expose a notorious mafia boss. Two stories of passionate reprisal twist together, twinned in tragedy. Before the end, Grens and Sundkvist will have to make hard decisions ? can they protect the ones they care about and still see justice served?
'intricate plot and deft characterisation' TLS 'highly satisfying.' IRISH TIMES 'Lovesey keeps the many strands of plot twisting and coiling, the denouement is dramatic, and the nuggets of art-history and archeology adds quirkiness to the formula.' SCOTLAND ON SUNDAY 'Diamond himself is a delight... Pure joy!' SCOTSMAN
